FNFV Announces Fidelity National Financial, Inc. Tax-Free Plan to Redeem and Exchange Shares of FNFV Tracking Stock, With End Result Being an Independent, Publicly-Traded FNFV Common Stock

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Dec. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- FNFV Group (NYSE: FNFV) today announced that the Fidelity National Financial, Inc. Board of Directors has approved a tax-free plan (the "Plan") pursuant to which it intends to redeem all FNFV tracking stock shares in exchange for shares of common stock of FNFV. After the completion of the Plan, FNFV will be a stand-alone, publicly-traded common stock and no longer a tracking stock.

The completion of the Plan is subject to the receipt of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, filing and acceptance of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, FNFV shareholder approval and other customary closing conditions. The closing of the tax-free distribution is expected in the third quarter of 2017.

"The formation of FNFV in July 2014 allowed for the simplification of the FNF story and provided a vehicle to realize the substantial value of our portfolio company investments that was not being recognized in FNF's stock price at that time," said Chairman William P. Foley, II. "We now believe that FNFV is best served by no longer being a tracking stock, but a stand-alone, publicly-traded common stock. FNF will also benefit by eliminating its tracking stock structure, making FNF index-eligible again and potentially significantly widening the demand for FNF common stock."
